What instances is kbin.social federated with?
I can’t see anything in the federation sidebar panel thing.

Kind of, any type of interaction between instances (even for example, if someone on instance A boosts a post by someone on instance B, and someone on instance C follows the person on instance A (or instance A is already federated with). Then boom, both instances now federate with each other)
So I’m trying to figure out what is the entity being federated. Let’s say we have instance A and instance B. A has 2 magazines, “anime” and “news,” and B has 2 magazines, “biking” and “news.”
With my single account, which magazines can I subscribe to?
Are the two “news” magazines the same entity, or different entities with the same name?
Does this logic apply cross-platform, i.e. to Lemmy’s “anime” or “biking” or “news” communities?
If all this is explained by a FAQ, I’ll take a link to it but so far I’ve been a little confused by this system. Thanks.
That kind of separation is actually nice. News A and News B can have entirely different culture and targeted community audience.
It avoid to be Reddit, which is suffering from English western-centric content.
For example, English Western community and English Asian gaming community have a lot of different culture, mainly about how they interprete mobile gaming. Asian (and probably Latin America) gamers consider mobile gaming like console or PC, while English Western generally looking down at any mobile gaming.
